The identity of Linda's blackmailer has been revealed in the latest episode of EastEnders. As a warning, this article contains spoilers for the upcoming episode which has not yet aired on TV, but can be watched now on BBC iPlayer.
Linda Carter, the landlady of the Queen Vic, has been on edge ever since she accidentally killed Keanu Taylor on Christmas Day. In an attempt to cover up the crime, she framed Dean Wicks, but the guilt has been eating away at her. She has been receiving mysterious letters from the blackmailer, causing her to become even more rattled.
The pressure of sticking to her false statement has been taking a toll on Linda, and she has almost confessed the truth multiple times. Her mental state has been deteriorating since Keanu's death. More recently, she was approached by Dean who offered her a deal - if she retracted her statement against him, he would confess to raping her in 2014.
However, before Linda could make a decision, Jack Branning intervened and arrested Dean for blackmail and perverting the course of justice. This left Linda with no choice but to continue with her false statement. Things took a turn for the worse when she received an anonymous letter claiming that the writer knew what she did on Christmas Day and called her a liar. This triggered Linda and she had a meltdown during a busy lunchtime service at the Vic.
In the midst of her outburst, Linda begged the customers to reveal the identity of the blackmailer. But before anyone could answer, she was calmed down by her brother, Johnny Carter. It was during this moment that the truth was finally revealed - Bernie Taylor was the one behind the letters.
It turns out, Bernie is desperate to get justice for her brother and believes that Dean is innocent. She confessed to Dean that she would stop at nothing to get the truth out of Linda. She believes that Linda is hiding something and is determined to uncover the truth. Will she succeed in getting justice for Keanu? Only time will tell.
